https://community.bt.com/t5/Archive-Staging/Multiple-NTE5a-sockets/m-p/2154390#M1231111 <P>We've recently moved into a new house and I've noticed we appear to have two NTE5a master sockets, 1 near the point at which the line enters the house with a blank plate, and 1 nearer the center of the house with a VDSL plate that we use for the Router. Is the second just simply an extension with a spare plate used?</P><P>My follow up is that the previous owners included wiring to the office for 2 additional phone extensions, if I was to replace the VDSL plate for a microfilter could I then add a micro filter into the office to use the phone socket in there for internet as well?</P><P>Thanks for any help in advance.</P> Fri, 09 Apr 2021 17:15:22 GMT Broady001 2021-04-09T17:15:22Z https://community.bt.com/t5/Archive-Staging/Multiple-NTE5a-sockets/m-p/2154390#M1231111 <P>We've recently moved into a new house and I've noticed we appear to have two NTE5a master sockets, 1 near the point at which the line enters the house with a blank plate, and 1 nearer the center of the house with a VDSL plate that we use for the Router.
